Transform methods for testing the negative binomial hypothesis
Statistica, 2007 We employ the empirical probability generating function in constructing a goodness-of-fit test for negative binomial distributions. The proposed tests, which are formed as weighted integrals, are shown to be consistent and their asymptotic null ...

Estimation of Intracluster Correlation under the Negative Binomial Model [PDF]
The Egyptian Statistical Journal, 2012 Estimation of the Intracluster Correlation Coefficient (ICC) for the case of clustered count data is considered. Under the negative binomial model the method of moments estimators of both the dispersion parameter and the ICC are derived.

On the Accuracy of the Generalized Gamma Approximation to Generalized Negative Binomial Random Sums
Mathematics, 2021 We investigate the proximity in terms of zeta-structured metrics of generalized negative binomial random sums to generalized gamma distribution with the corresponding parameters, extending thus the zeta-structured estimates of the rate of convergence in ...

Negative Binomial Factor Analysis
Behaviormetrika, 1999 A latent variable model for observed variables representing frequencies is proposed. The data type for the model is a subjects by variables two-way frequency table. The model has two groups of latent variables. The first group of latent variables represents the characteristics of subjects and corresponds to common factors in factor analysis.

A Modified Negative Binomial Distribution: Properties, Overdispersion and Underdispersion
Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2019 In this paper, we introduce a new and useful discrete distribution (modified negative binomial distribution) and its statistical and probabilistic properties are discussed.

Safety evaluation of urban roundabouts in India: a safety performance function-based approach
Traffic Safety Research, 2022 There is a lack of comprehensive research in roundabout safety under non-lane-based traffic conditions, mainly due to the absence of relevant crash data and effective tools for safety evaluation.

Goodness-of-Fit Test for the Bivariate Negative Binomial Distribution
AxiomsWhen modeling real-world data, we face the challenge of determining which probability distribution best represents the data. To address this intricate problem, we rely on goodness-of-fit tests.

Migraine day frequency in migraine prevention: longitudinal modelling approaches
BMC Medical Research Methodology, 2019 Background Health economic models are critical tools to inform reimbursement agencies on health care interventions. Many clinical trials report outcomes using the frequency of an event over a set period of time, for example, the primary efficacy outcome ...
